The Ancient Romans created many art forms that still help us today...I'm sorry they're not indented! I know this sounds silly, but tab didn't work for this. I hope it's readable!

II. Which ones affect us today?

2. They can be found in jewelry stores.
3. They can be found in houses, business buildings, and other structures.
4. They can be found anywhere!!!
1.5 Language and writing
The Romans language and writing still affect us today. First, the Romans spoke Latin.Latin is now a dead language but we still use it's afffixes and roots in some of our modern day words. For example, telephone, tele means from afar and phone means to talk or yell, so telephone means to talk or yell from a distance. Secondly, the Romans number system was different. The Roman numerals look like our modern day letters. Some examples are X = ten, I = one, L = one hundred, and D = one thousand. Finally, some examples of how we use Roman language and writing in our modern lives. Roman numerals can be anywhere like clocks, watches, and statues. Latin is used in many modern day words. In conclusion, language and writing would be very different if the Romans did not make their system.-Ty Walling 4*
Chapter1:ART --By Angelina P. Anton 5th Period
Although Romans developed Greece's statues and sculptures, they invented very life-like sculptures of the bust (primarily the shoulders & up). Sculpting is very important, but so is their paintings: Frescos- made during Renaissance or earlier time periods -painting in pigment -often painted on a fresh layer of plaster or lime mortar -related to a mural -painted on walls or ceilings Murals- painted on large architectural space -painted on walls or ceilings Mosaics- creating images with colored bits of glass or stone -decorative art/interior art for cathedrals -rough quadratics are known as tesserae... used to make patterns or pictures Blown Glass- technique that involves inflating molten glass using blow tube or blow pipe -person who blows glass is called a blacksmith, gaffer, or glass blower Gem Cutting- gems could be cut to remove bad material -used chisel or sanding technique -historical terms engraved gems or hard-stone carvings -grinded edges against revolving saw or lapidary slitter -used canvas covered polishing wheel and magnifying glass -also used facet-cutting device Cameos- engraving a gem
-contrasting background -material of a flat plane -the term cameo appearance has developed -also defined as an image of a head in an oval frame using any medium Metalworking- evolved from smelting ores to now used for tools and adornments -cutting, carving, and bending using many useful tools can make a very successful pieces of art
Today, you can find all of these works of art everywhere around you; museums, households, schools, offices, work-places ect.... Without art, the world would be flat....
